I started drinking at 11, smoking at 12, smoking pot at 13, crystal meth/ speed at 14, cocaine/ecstasy and LSD at 15 and heroin at 16.

I am now 25 and now drug and alcohol free.

 

 

Holy shit, pretty much the same ages as you (minus the hard drugs) except I don't get high or smoke cigs anymore, booze on the other hand......



" Rebellion Against Tyrants Is Obedience To God"

I've been offered beers since I was 8ish. I haven't started to really drink heavily until 18.

Never had a hangover yet. It's either plan A :Not drink enough or plan B: drink a ridiculous amount, sleep 3 hours, go to class with a huge bottle of water+salt+lemon. I never get dehydrated enough to have a hangover.

Also my alcohol tolerance is ridiculous and I'm poor so I never end up drinking too much, proportional to my tolerance. Makes me sad... But when I get into one of them open bars.... oooo boy. They go bankrupt.

I presume 'drinking' is referring to alcohol. Never touched a drop. Furthermore, given the vast amount of non-alcoholic drinks available I think alcohol should be banned. I also think people who binge drink should be denied medical treatment as they have brought any conditions on themselves.

We had two bags of grass, seventy-five pellets of mescaline, five sheets of high-powered blotter acid, a salt shaker half full of cocaine, a whole galaxy of multi-colored uppers, downers, screamers, laughers…Also a quart of tequila, a quart of rum, a case of beer, a pint of raw ether and two dozen amyls.  The only thing that really worried me was the ether.  There is nothing in the world more helpless and irresponsible and depraved than a man in the depths of an ether binge. –Raoul Duke

It is hard to shed anything but crocodile tears over White House speechwriter Patrick Buchanan's tragic analysis of the Nixon debacle. "It's like Sisyphus," he said. "We rolled the rock all the way up the mountain...and it rolled right back down on us...."  Neither Sisyphus nor the commander of the Light Brigade nor Pat Buchanan had the time or any real inclination to question what they were doing...a martyr, to the bitter end, to a "flawed" cause and a narrow, atavistic concept of conservative politics that has done more damage to itself and the country in less than six years than its liberal enemies could have done in two or three decades. -Hunter S. Thompson

the first time i tried a licor drink was when i had like 9 or 10 years old.
